The iPod chip maker PortalPlayer announced yesterday that it has not been selected by Apple to power some future versions of the iPod.
In a statement PortalPlayer said that;
“the follow-on to its PP5021 System-on-Chip, which is expected to be available in the second half of 2006, has not been selected by Apple for use in their mid-range and high-end flash based iPods.”
PortalPlayer still believes that its PP5021 chip will continue to be used in other iPod models.
